Subject: Issue with ifconfig down and 4965 driver
Date: Thu, 13 Nov 2008 05:14:42 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <BCB72601-9DA2-4D89-BDF1-7B96254DA17C@linux.intel.com> (raw)

Hi guys,

so I am running a 2.6.28-rc4 kernel and every time I stop  
wpa_supplicant or call ifconfig down on the 4965 card, I get a user  
noticeable delay (mouse freezes). Seems that some part inside the  
driver is actively sleeping with a busy-loop. This is really not an  
acceptable behavior since it is a day-to-day task to bring the device  
down. And for power concerns, we really wanna allow to bring down the  
interface.

Regards

Marcel
